Two-thirds of colleges are prioritizing online versions of on-campus programs, poll finds - Natalie Schwartz, Higher Ed Dive

College officials likely see creating online versions of existing programs as easier than launching entirely new academic programs, according to the report. However, 48% of chief online learning officers still said their priorities included launching new online programs with no campus equivalent.
